Working hours

I work Mondays - Thursdays

Perhaps some of these sound familiar...

• You feel stuck in the same patterns and can鈥檛 work out how to shift this
• You struggle to make sense of your dynamics with others
• You don't feel good enough
• You want to process some childhood or other experiences
• You notice shame holds you back
• You鈥檝e been feeling anxious or stressed a lot of the time
• Maybe you feel overwhelmed by life鈥檚 challenges
• You're facing a big change
• Life feels empty and without meaning or purpose
• You鈥檙e not thriving

馃挌 It can feel hard to face things alone or make sense of the challenges life can present. It鈥檚 probably not more willpower you need 鈥� perhaps it鈥檚 more insight in a safe, empathic space to figure out who you are and how you want to live your life.

馃尶 I have an ecologically-minded practice which means that I consider place, planet and the non-human in my work. If this is important to you, I welcome discussion around this in my therapy work.

What sort of issues do I help clients with?

Some of the sorts of areas I work with include:

• Repeated patterns of thinking or behaving where you feel stuck
• Overwhelm and anxiety including social anxiety, and stress
• Processing earlier experiences
• Life changes and transitions such as children leaving home, menopause, coming out, relationship break-up, bereavement, changing career or city, redundancy, retirement or something else
• Low self-esteem and self-confidence including a sense of being an imposter
• Relationship challenges such as difficulties with partners, friends or families, affairs and betrayals, separation and divorce
• Work issues including people facing disciplinary or redundancy
• Attachment difficulties
• Bereavement, grief and loss
• End-of-life including caring for another with an illness
• Exploring meaning and purpose in life

You can expect a safe, non-judgemental and confidential space. My approach is warm and compassionate.

Assessment session - half price

I appreciate taking the first step and making contact with a counsellor or therapist can be daunting. It鈥檚 natural to feel uncomfortable or hesitant as it is a big commitment.

I offer the first assessment session at half price, which is an opportunity for you to get a feel for how I work, and for us both to see if we would be a good fit to work together.
